Backlinks can definitely help now, but go for quality ones like niche edits that have traffic on the url you’re getting from the site, guest posts which are niche relavant, strong home page pbns. Try targeting different variations of keywords and see what works best for you
 
You mean different variations of keywords as the anchor texts? And for the PBNs, should it point to specific pages or homepage?

Both are reasonable, however if you ask me, the best option is to focus on backlinks. Choose the high-quality backlinks from the most authoritative sites to boost your site's traffic.
 
IMO if you already have traffic on your website then you should go for producing more content. Backlinks are important too but good ones will cost a lot and it terms of cost effectiveness, creating more content seems like a more reasonable choice.
 
DR 6 with 158 referring domains is too low.

This is my last working project so you can use it as a reference:

Even this is not best, but just a reference so you can observe that with almost half of domains there is double of DR (and it could be even higher with even better domains selected)

More quantity it's not necessarily good. Although DR can be manipulated if you keep it right, it could be a good indicator to understand if your links are somewhat good or not.

Improving content and backlinks both would be helpful.

Adding some good quality links targeting anchor or keywords of page 2 ranking pages will help in increasing traffic.
 
I'd suggest both links and content
If you rank for more terms, you'll attract more links anyway
 
Around 10K keywords from ahrefs are ranking an driving organic traffic.

That's good, look for posts that aren't in top 10 I mean top 11 to 30.

These will be easiest to improve & push through the top.

In info niche the easiest way to keep growing is to keep writing on trends topics, so keep adding content regularly.

Trending topics are easier to rank in most cases and drive a good amount of organic traffic.

Now regarding your backlinks from that ahrefs screenshots I am not impressed.

That an unhealthy backlink profile where you got a DR 6 for 158 RD.

You need to work on it remove the bad links and build good quality links.

Last thing take advantage of ugc platforms to promote & drive traffic, info niche is easier to promote on any of these platforms.
 
Both are important. Just keep publishing high quality articles with proper internal linking structure. You can build strong high quality links with diversified anchor profile.

Thanks for the tip. How do I remove these bad links please?
 
You should definitely go for backlinks and some keyword research to know which keywords are you lacking in that gives more traffic.
 
Backlinks if the goal is to rank, but i believe nowadays the most successful sites won't depend on backlinks. They will be so good that people will simply share them all around the web. So content is better, but only if you can produce really viral content.
